OverviewInstead He Sent Me Angels details one woman's journey through the darkness of mental illness and ultimately into the light of love. It is a story of hope. Terresa Anderson struggled for years against a demon without a name. The internal violence was invisible to the outside world, but it was indeed real. After nearly being destroyed, she was finally given hope (and a name) for the chaos within. Mental illness takes many forms and, for the author, it took two. Not only did she suffer from manic depression, but she also had the nasty complication of a borderline personality disorder---which would prove to be much more difficult to treat. With the help of many angels she began the incredible journey of healing herself from the inside out. The earth angels (as she refers to them) who proved to be the most instrumental in guiding her to good health in mind, body and soul, were her beloved MD, Dr. Stoune and her dedicated and unwavering therapist, Lyle. Without these two men, the author would not be here today. Instead He Sent Me Angels is the compilation of 16 journals written during the course of therapy and recovery. Through these diary entries, you will witness the transformation of despair into hope, sadness into joy, and hate into love. Raw emotion and, at times, graphic details are exposed in this moving memoir. Some readers may find it difficult to digest without tears and some without horror. But it's a story that needs to be told. Too many people have suffered in silence. The author is willing to share such a personal part of her life, because she wishes to offer hope to those who are just beginning. The journey is long, but it is worth it.
